I don't know why everyone thinks encrypting their connection will do them any good. You do realize the data is decrypted on the other end. WoW's servers wouldn't respond to encrypted data. The only reason to encrypt data is to protect it while it is in transit. So unless you are worried about someone next door breaking into your wireless router and stealing your account with a man in the middle attack, all encryption does is slow down the transit process and make your bot lag.
Man-in-the-middle goes a bit further than snagging plaintext over wifi. In the case of an onion router, there are many more opportunities to exploit a man-in-the-middle drop. So for all intents and purposes, when using an onion router, there is a degree of certainty that encryption is beneficial.
There's no 100% effective solution in redirecting one's traffic, one might feel comfortable behind a veepeeen shurb, but when one turns around, there's a dozen other botters hiding behind the same shrub. Same applies to onion routers. You're better of in the long run, to use your own, and if you think you got flagged by IP, call your ISP and ask for a release/renew, might take a few calls, but eventually they will give you a different IP.
